One Block - Six Textures

Walking the route I walked a number of times for the 'Wednesday Walk' weekly challenge what caught my eye was, textures.

A couple of the photos I made into black and whites because the textures looked more interesting that way.

There were lots of choices but I stuck to textures specifically rather than branching out into patterns as well. 😊

Melted Tarmacky Stuff

This was in one of the entrance ways to the houses in First Ave which originally would have been covered with tiles.

Tactile Blister Paving

Found as we approach the road to warn the visually impaired and blind that a crossing is coming up.

Granite Curb Stone

The original granite setts that edge the pavement all the way down First Avenue

Flaking Paint On Stone

I think this is my favourite texture. The stonework ballustrade is most definitely in need of a repaint.

Very Thirsty Yellow Grass 😢

The state of Hove Lawns. as it was last July. It recovered completely though. 😢

Pebble Dash

A modernised balustrade. Pretty naff in my opinion although the texture on it's own is interesting.

These textures were all found within one block of my house, either under foot or on walls.

I wonder when I'm going to run out of ideas from just this single block. So far it has been ultra productive! 😁
